Can I just say - I love you guys as a couple! Normalizing that a girl can be taller than the guy in a relationship and breaking that stereotype that the guy has to be taller. Love is love at the end of the day, there shouldn't be any hard and fast rule about what a relationship should look like. Keep pushing that positivity Merle and Aria!
I know right? I was really insecure about it untill some months ago. Having a partner that also doesn't give a damn about my height has helped me a lot. In the beggining i was skeptical due to ''patterns'', people magnifying how tall i am and how difficult it must be for me to find a taller guy. I always felt like hiding when people said that, and i think that's where the norm ''short girl, tall guy'' comes from, making one think they will only be feminine, confident, happy and all if they're with someone with those specific features; which is a big nonsense if you ask me. There are more amazing things in someone as a whole to only pay attention to their outer appearence . I'm 5'10, my boyfriend is 5'8 and i wouldn't want to be with anyone else :) I loved your channel, keep up with the awesome work! Society needs to break as more shitty concepts as possible!
@@allecrya2816 Thanks for sharing your story, I love that! I really admire your open mindedness and I respect you so much for it. And thank you for your kind words, I will do my best to continue to empower short guys and just overall body positivity for men and women in our society :)
I love that they put out a real example of a relationship, good times and bad times. Love y’all. Also, I have tofu to get rid of before it goes bad so I’m glad I saw this.
I'm obsessed with making these kinds of spring rolls! My staples are carrots, cucumber, red onion, tofu, and bell peppers. but when we're feeling extra spicy we'll toss in a mystery ingredient! Like sauteed shitake mushrooms or jalapenos or anything we have left in the fridge. And for our sauce its pretty much the same but we add a little bit of ginger to it (thats the secret 😉)
Tofu fried rice! Cook your rice the night before, cube and marinate your extra firm tofu overnight in soy sauce, honey/maple syrup, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, peanut oil and chilli oil to taste. Bell peppers, bok choy, peas, corn, carrot. Wok it to em babyyyyyyy. A truck load of green onions to serve and Boom, heaven!! I used to make this for my ex and he used to complain about too many veggies, but now I make it for my housemate on girls night. She appreciates it a LOT more 😍 VERY nice in Summer with a cold beer or a G&T!
Yum! I like adding cilantro to my spring rolls too. It's super good with roasted butternut squash (salt, pepper, ground ginger, and a wee bit of sesame oil).
Great video! May I suggest adding hoisin sauce to your peanut sauce? It's really delicious and a staple in things like Vietnamese peanut sauce and pho.
I recently discovered that my favorite Vietnamese restaurant back from my meat-eating days sells vegetarian spring rolls and bahn mi made from mock duck (a variation of seitan). I asked the restaurant to make me a vegan version of the dishes and they tasted absolutely fantastic. I’m wondering if you have ever cooked with mock duck before.😁 It was my first time trying it, and it was so good!
I'm so happy for you guys I'm almost a lil emotional, I remember you guys videos when you were just getting to know each other. And look at you now, wonderful!
lol the first time i ever went to the dentist i was 15, i believe😂😂 i only had a bit of plaque and they removed it. everything else was in perfect state
I watched your love story a year ago and I thought it was cute. I don’t follow Buzzfeed but found myself randomly thinking “I wonder if that couple is still together “. I never actually checked to see if you were but it did pop in my mind a few times. Today I’ve been up since 5am and decided to get meal ideas on YT because I’ll be going meatfree for the month. I looked up veggie spring rolls and clicked on your video so fast when I seen it was you two. I am glad you guys are still going strong. And I will be making the spring rolls. Thank you!
Dental health is extremely important. I have a friend who almost died because she waited too long to get her teeth fixed, during which time one of her teeth became infected and gave her sepsis.
lmao your bowl of sauce- DC has been wanting to make these bc we love the shrimp ones - also tell aria i haven't been to the dentist since 2014 - it's fine LOL
I’m not too sure if you’ve maybe done this before but I guess bananas, when warmed and peeled, is a good gelatin substitute!!! It’s very banana-y so you’d have to use like vanilla or some kind of flavoring but you can totally make a flan out of ‘naners! It sets like gelatin when cooled :) maybe you can try a gelatin type recipe with bananas?!
There was a time where I worked at a Thai Food place and ate those tofu fresh rolls with extra peanut sauce. I was obsessed and I never got tired of it. I wonder if we called them fresh rolls to differentiate. People would say the spring rolls that aren’t fried.
This woman wanted to make this video just to get some free spring rolls out of it!!
Hey the vegan queen needs to eat!😁
Is Merle really 6'4???
Ya know what?? I'm not even going to deny it!
@@JubeiKibagamiFez yes
@@MerleONeal LOL. I watch an older video. You said you were 5' 11".
Merle's face, in the beginning, is priceless. I feel like she was HOLDING the TEMPTATION to FIX EVERYTHING! Like pressing tofu haha
“This is HIS moment. Let him have HIS MOMENT” 👹
For 8 minutes I forgot how single I am
We got you 💚
Big facts
I feel you sis.
For 8 minutes, I remembered how single I am

I feel like all boys complain about too many veggies lol I cook for my mom and sister and they appreciate all the veggies lol
@@biancajingles2690 I was like "You should be grateful that I'm freakin cooking for you at all!" 😂😂😂
@@erininunderland4314 you can knead the veggies into noodles. Puree the veggie and mix it into the flour and make some noodz.
@@Amatersuful oooooh that sounds so good 🤤
@@erininunderland4314 its a great way for ppl who complains about veggie or picky about veggie.
I LOVE SPRING ROLLS THANK YOU MERLIE!!!
(Also, now I know how to prepare tofu properly so it doesn’t taste like ballsacks 😁)
🤣🤣
Seeing you guys together, fills my heart with so much joy that I forget I recently faced a break up, for a few minutes.
💕
Filling my romantic void 101
Every 5 seconds, they give each a hug
Makes me smile and feel so warm 🥰❤❤
I love watching you two. Both for the content, but also just for the smiles and heartwarming happiness I feel seeing you both happy together. 🥰

Love Spring rolls! Love the peanut sause! One of my favourite dishes! 😋❤
Great video! May I suggest adding hoisin sauce to your peanut sauce? It's really delicious and a staple in things like Vietnamese peanut sauce and pho.

Dental health is extremely important. I have a friend who almost died because she waited too long to get her teeth fixed, during which time one of her teeth became infected and gave her sepsis.
You guyssssss omg I’m obsessed
Aria being an asian mom for calling out Merle for nibbling 😂😂😂 god so relatable 😂😂😂
They look so cuteeee❤️❤️❤️❤️🥺

THEY ARE SO CUTE STOP IT TT_TT
lmao your bowl of sauce- DC has been wanting to make these bc we love the shrimp ones - also tell aria i haven't been to the dentist since 2014 - it's fine LOL
RUBY GO TO THE DENTIST
Am I allowed to feel jealous with you guys cause I'm so single right now 😂😂😂
Gonna try the recipe though. Thanks for this! 💙
You guys are so cute :) we like making pad Thai for date nights. Just got a Tasty brand wok too!
I’m not too sure if you’ve maybe done this before but I guess bananas, when warmed and peeled, is a good gelatin substitute!!! It’s very banana-y so you’d have to use like vanilla or some kind of flavoring but you can totally make a flan out of ‘naners!

I'm not (only) here for the food. I'm just enjoying watching 2 in love people.

in Germany we call them Summer Rolls and I always thought that's what they're called everywhere... :D
You are the loveliest couple!

Love you guys
Love your cooking channel
I just smiled throughout this video!❤👀
I love you guys!!!
